One more day off!

I called my boss last night and asked if we had to be in today. Apparently nobody is. Which means - I’m not! So one more day off to rest and get well. Actually, yesterday I was feeling better. I still have a cough, a little fatigued, but for some reason I was feeling like I was on the road to recovery.

Last night I tried to watch Amelie. I got through about 45 minutes and couldn’t watch anymore. Everyone I’ve talked to has loved it. I was a little on the ‘when is something going to happen’ side. It just never really clicked. Yes, its cute and all, but it wasn’t such a big deal. People have said this is my kind of movie, something I’d like. I’ll have to give it another shot. It could be my mood last night. It was around 9PM, I watched for 45 minutes then tried to watch some other shows I had stored up on TiVo. From ‘Everyone Loves Raymond’ to old episodes of ‘Wings’ and last week’s episode of ‘Will and Grace’. Nothing seemed to entertain me so I just fell asleep with the TV on.

Maybe tonight Donna and I will watch Amelie.

The kids and I woke up this morning to a huge storm in So Cal. It hasn’t rained on the Rose Parade in like 50 years! Well… today it did. We watched the bands, the Rose Queen, the floats and spectators get soaked in the rain. Donna had to drive quite a distance to get on the freeway in order to get home from work. All the roads were closed but she eventually fought the rain drenched freeway and traffic and got home around 9:00.

Happy New Year everyone!
